What do you think of this wedding dress?

What would you think if you went to a wedding and the bride wore this? I've got it for my (very small) wedding and I love it.

I'm worried because it's not an actual wedding dress, just a maxi dress. It didn't cost a lot of money so it's not the end of the world if you all think it's inappropriate.

It's lovely! I'm not having a "wedding dress" either - wear what you feel good in 👰🏼

Love love love it!

Looks comfy, relaxed and elegant. I wore a long peachy coloured bridesmaids sort of dress for my small informal wedding and everyone who's seen the photos have said how nice it is that it was a bit different.

Hmmm. Not sure personally.

Ultimately if you are looking happy and in love your look gorgeous even if you were wearing a bin bag.

But in terms of the dress itself, I think it would depend on how it's worn. Hair up, nice jewellery, nice make up, appropriate shoes, bouquet....could look lovely. Worn as it is in the picture I think it looks like a moderately fancy summer evening dress.

Lovely.

I didn't have a wedding dress either. I was instead very comfortable all day but still wearing a lovely dress!

I don't get what there is to not be sure about it
I think it is lovely and a nice change from the ubiquitous strapless gown that most brides wear these days (and which are deeply unflattering on all but a few).

a beautiful dress, I love it!

More importantly if you love it you will feel more relaxed on your wedding day, and actually be able to concentrate on the important bit - ie enjoying the first day of your married life with your new husband. Hope you have a lovely day (and a very happy life together!)

Why would it be inappropriate? You should wear whatever you want Smile

Thanks everyone Smile I'm feeling even better about it now. I'm thinking of having my hair like this so hopefully that will dress it up a bit.

I think it's beautiful, and there's no need to do the hair up, right shoes, right flowers thing to wedding it up - it's lovely as it is. Low key but elegant.
